Vilmart & Cie 'Les Blanches Voies' Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut 2012 750ml

” Unwinding in the glass with notes of pear, fresh bread, elderflower, blanched almonds and citrus oil, it’s full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with huge depth at the core and an incisive spine of acidity. Long and penetrating, this is immensely promising, but it’s going to demand some patience—more so than the 2011 or 2009. It’s a brilliant Champagne in the making, but for now, time is the one missing ingredient. 96 points” Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
